Automation Systems — PLC

Industrial Automation — PLC

Today, PLCs represent a cornerstone in industrial automation, providing intelligent solutions that not only replace but transform control methods in machinery and processes, taking automation to new heights of intelligence and efficiency.

Basic PLCs
Compact automation solutions that integrate communication functions and technology for efficient management.

Advanced PLCs
Going beyond production plant automation, covering applications that require greater performance, flexibility and networking capability.

Distributed PLCs
Designed for machines with distributed architecture and serial machines with limited space. These PLCs adapt to environments where efficiency and space are critical considerations.

Distributed Control System — SIMATIC PCS 7

Distributed Control System — SIMATIC PCS 7

In recent years, the Distributed Control System (DCS) has gained a prominent role in complex or large-scale industrial processes. SIMATIC PCS 7 from Siemens is the reference DCS platform in which we are an Expert Partner.

Distributing the control system architecture around the plant has led to more efficient methods to ensure process control reliability, improve quality and achieve operational efficiency throughout the facility.

In a DCS system, numerous decentralised elements are distributed throughout the process, connected via a high-speed industrial communication network.

One of the key advantages of a DCS lies in cost reduction, thanks to the standardisation of both software and hardware components. This facilitates the unified management of automation and monitoring under a single umbrella.

The ability of a DCS system to guarantee high availability through redundant control systems or H-systems ensures optimal plant operation even in the event of unexpected failures.

Additionally, a DCS can adapt to factory growth thanks to its remarkable scalability due to its decentralised nature. This characteristic allows it to accompany the development of industry in line with its expansion needs.

At Maval, we have a multidisciplinary team with extensive experience in the development and integration of SIMATIC PCS 7 and other DCS systems tailored to the specific needs of our clients across diverse industrial sectors. We are committed to providing efficient solutions that contribute to the success and optimisation of industrial processes.

HMI / SCADA

> SIMATIC WINCC · SIMATIC WINCC UNIFIED

SIMATIC WinCC — Industrial HMI and SCADA

From workstations based on standard or virtualised PC solutions to robust operator terminals designed for industrial environments, we develop user interfaces that ensure comfortable, simple and user-friendly operation:

  • Multi-station system in client-server architecture
  • Multi-screen technology
  • Plant synoptic displays
  • Alarm and message management
  • Recipe editing and management
  • SFC visualisation and handling (control sequences)
  • Asset management
  • Access control and digital signature, etc.

Basic HMI
Basic operator panels, perfect for implementing simple machine-level controls with limited functionality.

Advanced HMI
Advanced operator panels where the solution is based on demanding applications with wide configuration limits.

HMI
SCADA

SCADA Solutions
A SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) is essential software for the control and supervision of industrial processes. We are experts in developing SCADA solutions based on SIMATIC WinCC and SIMATIC WinCC Unified, the Siemens platforms for process visualisation and supervision at every plant level.

SIMATIC WinCC is Siemens’ proven SCADA system, trusted across thousands of industrial installations. SIMATIC WinCC Unified represents the next generation, built on native web technology that enables supervision access from any device with a browser, delivering a modern and scalable user experience.

These systems act as a real-time observer of the plant, providing a complete view of what is happening. From monitoring the temperature of a chamber to verifying the status of a production line, SCADA delivers detailed information on every aspect of the process and allows effective intervention, enabling key operations such as adjusting a valve or initiating a complete production run.

Furthermore, due to its high flexibility it adds other functionalities such as:

Integrating SCADA with MES/MOM systems closes the production loop, connecting plant-floor data with enterprise management.

Control Panels

Industrial control panels

In any automated industrial system, control panels play a fundamental role. For this reason, we design and manufacture our own panels in compliance with international standards, flexibly adapting to any demand.

Control Panels, DCS, MCCs and I/O peripherals, Communications, Data Processing Centres (DPC), Pneumatic system panels, Installation and interconnection.

Having control of electrical engineering (ECAD) throughout the entire project lifecycle improves change management, resulting in a significant reduction in costs and execution times.

Process Instrumentation

Process instrumentation

From the correct selection to its integration into automation systems, we take care of managing and commissioning the best application of equipment and devices for measuring, converting, regulating, observing, and ensuring safety, among other crucial aspects.

From the correct selection to integration into automation systems, we manage the deployment of the best equipment and devices for measuring, converting, regulating, observing and ensuring safety.

Our experience covers the careful selection of instrumentation according to each project's specific needs, ensuring its correct integration into industrial automation systems for efficient and safe operation.

We actively participate in developing the technical specification sheets for the instrumentation that makes up the control system, covering both Physical and Chemical variables.
